Brief history of airline clubs @ CMH

In the good ole days, they had a TWA Ambassador Club. I bought a lifetime membership that was converted into a three-year AAdmirals Club membership when AA "AAquired' TWA. The attendant, Sabina, was lovely...

Then the space became the America West Presidents Club during the brief time CMH was an AWA hub. Joined that too. For a time, DL had an "unattended" Crown Room on the B concourse. Was a member there. Members were provided a code to enter.

AA does pretty good business @ CMH these days; comparable to DL and WN I suspect. The remodeled airport is really nice, but alas, no airline clubs remain. Would love to see an Admirals Club, but very unlikely. Maybe with the new John Glenn moniker?
